'Flamenco Tradicional' by Ian Davies

hello All, I am a flamenco guitarist student, living in a small village in the north of Friesland in the Netherlands. I started to accompagny my wife and daughter (9 years old) during their flamenco dance lessons with my guitar ones a week. My son (8 years old) also plays guitar and helps me to accompagny the Sevillanas dance, he is doing quite well! I hope, somebody here could help me finding some books from the 'for-me-famous' - English - flamenco guitarist, Ian Davies. He died some years and because his peak / famous period was around the 80/90s not much traces of his music is left. In the early 90-ies, I had flamenco guitar lessons for some years in Groningen, a nice place in the North here. At that time I bought some books (3 from the 9...) from Ian Davies book serie named ' Flamenco Tradicional' I only bought the first 3. Due to a shoulder injury I stopped playing for some years. Lately, I re-discovered the Davies books, I like them a lot because of its pure / tradicional character. Since this serie is no longer for sale, I have to find the missing volumes via other flamenco guitarists. Two weeks ago Dutch flamenco guitarist helped me out with the 4th volume, which was (more than) great. But he told me as well that the other, higher numbers of this serie, would be more difficult to get. Here in this forum I hope to be among other Ian Davies fans, helping me to find the following missing volumes: vol 5: Tientos / Malaguenas vol 6: Buleria en la / Fandangos ! vol 7: Alegrias por medio / Sevillanas 2 vol 8: Farruca / Tarantas vol 9: Soleares por medio / Peteneras the publisher was 'Harpocean Limited Ltd', London (which no longer exists :-( ). I cannot find any trace of the above volumes on the www, it might be the case they missed the internet because they are published in the 80s? It would be really really great to have the serie complete! All the best! Peer By the way, my favorite record (from the 60s/70s?!) is from 'Rafael Romero' named 'Cante Gitano', guitarists: Andres Heredia and Rafael Heredia. For me this record contains the really pure flamenco!
